Unable to neg rep?

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or just an additional option that they're testing, but there is no minus button on posts. Is this on purpose? Is this an option that you can turn on or off?

Are you talking about on this forum? If so, they've disabled it intentionally through the ACP. It's an option you can change on your own board.

Yeah, I just noticed there was just a plus button, and I thought it was quite odd. That's what I was wondering. It took a little bit of searching, but I managed to find a post from bfarber that said something to the effect that you can enable/disable negative and positive reing separately (he was answering a question about changing votes).

We turned it off because a few of our members felt the need to target certain other members and negative rep all their posts. In any event, you can turn it on and off and there are some controls for it in the ACP.

Exactly. I think having the Neg option turned on is just an excuse to some members to target others.

Also, I tend to find that those who have a problem or voice their concern over the ability to neg rep other members are those who want to neg rep other members.

Or, to rate the true quality of your posts.

Really? Then don't Rep him. That's how you have your voice.

The way I see it, Neg Repping is just another way for members to flame other members without posting.
